What is the range of elevation at the coordinates 45 degrees north latitud and 90 degrees west longitude?

Answer 1

When you specify a latitude and a longitude, you\'ve defined a single point on

the Earth, so there can\'t be a "range" of elevation there.

This particular point is an interesting one. In fact, there\'s a Geological Marker

standing there, placed by the Marathon County Park Commission.

It reads:

"This spot in Section 14, in the town of Rietbrock, Marathon County, is the

exact center of the northern half of the Western Hemisphere. It is here that the

90th meridian of West Longitude bisects the 45th parallel of North Latitude, meaning

that it is exactly half way between the North Pole and the Equator, and is a quarter

of the way around the Earth from Greenwich, England."

The point is in the quarter section bounded by Lovers Ln, Wren Rd, Cherry Ln,

and Meridian Rd, in Athens, Marathon County, Wisconsin, about 18.3 miles west-

northwest of the center of Wausau.

Oh ... and its elevation is 1,345 feet Above Mean Sea Level.
